Ukrainian army confirms Antoniv bridge strikes
The Ukrainian military says it has carried out the strikes on the Antoniv bridge in the Kherson region while Russian forces are considering the complete restriction of traffic on the bridge.
Natalya Humenyuk, spokeswoman for the Southern Defense Forces, said this on the air of the national telethon, reports Espreso.
She noted that Ukrainian forces are keeping strategically important logistical and transport routes under fire control. They are of critical importance to Russian forces. This does not give him the opportunity to maneuver, pull up forces and ammunition.
Humenyuk noted that the Ukrainian army does not destroy the infrastructure of our country, but destroys the Russian plans: "we value everything we have. The work of our artillery is so delicate and jewel-like that it is more aimed at demoralizing the enemy's troops."
When asked by the presenter if there were still blows, she remarked: "Yes, there were blows, but they were filigree."
Russia also confirmed the damage to the Antoniv bridge, as a result of an attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the night of July 27.
The deputy head of the so-called military-civilian administration of the Kherson region, Kyrylo Stremousov, said in a comment to TASS: "There is a hit on the bridge, the bridge is not destroyed. More holes have been added."
At the moment, traffic on the Antoniv bridge is completely closed, he added.
On the night of July 27, information appeared on social networks about probable new strikes by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the Antoniv Bridge.
